Fascism - an authoritarian and nationalistic right-wing system of government and social organization
Socialism - a political and economic theory of social organization that advocates that the means of production, distribution, and exchange should be owned or regulated by the community as a whole.
Do you see the difference? Nazis were fascist, literally the exact opposite of socialism. Commie's are socialist or at least "used" to be.. Nazi's were fascist..

I am not confusing that much and I think that we are not far from agreeing with each other. You are using the word "fascist" in its political signification. I am using it in its philosophical signification (like Hannah Arendt). That is were the confusion comes from.
I think that your mistake is that you are judging the nazi ideology with 2017 eyes when you label them as conservative.
Of course you are right. Only in 1939, they were not conservatives, they were the progressists. Just like I am sure that in 2080, people will consider nowadays SJWs and so called "liberals" as fascists.
I am comparing the Trump protesters (have you seen the video?) to nazis/fascists because they are both socialists, they are thought police, they are both authoritarian, they both do not beleive in democracy, they both are ready to use violence to reach their goals.
The only difference is that they are not nationalists. In fact, they hate america, like all good Schomsky followers.
